ManiacClown posted:"Here, hold my Annihilus." Johnny also has his own Annihilation Wave. You should really just read all of Hickman's Fantastic Four/Future Foundation run as its been very good. He even manages to pull off a "death and return" scenario without copping out and making the death scene meaningless in retrospect.

Bown posted:Is Hickman's run over yet, and if so what issues of what series' are part of it? I loved what I read of it a lot. It starts at Fantastic Four 570 (although technically he did the Dark Reign Fantastic Four mini first) runs through 588 where the series ends. Its replaced by Future Foundation until issue 11 and then back to Fantastic Four name and numbering with issue 600. Future Foundation is now its own spin off series starting with issue 12.

Breetai posted:No-one would ever have the stones to do it, and there would be continuity problems due to a bunch of one-off series that depict him before SHIELD (although the Ultimate universe may have a shot...), but I would love to see it revealed that Nick Fury does not exist, and has never existed; it's life-model-decoys all the way down. Secret Warriors reveals where the first LMDs came from and its kind of disturbing.

I think my biggest problem with Lucifer is that after a while the actual character of Lucifer kind of takes a back seat in the series. The ending makes up for it but for a good chunk its the "Supporting cast" show.

Black Bolt is actually off in hiding, pretending to be dead. It would have been Medusa doing that, which is probably more of a mindfuck.

Zeroisanumber posted:That was another comic. I feel like it was an Alan Moore (or a writer like him) that put a Superman-level character in a world full of ungrateful jerks. He eventually snaps, as they always do. Dark Horse did a similar thing with their shared universe in the 90s. There was a hero called Titan who was basically Superman but raised by an abusive father and worked for the government but he eventually snaps because everyone constantly tries to manipulate him. Like how he is called in to protect a prominent businessman but it turns out the guy was only in danger because he was a drug dealer or how he's brought in to stop a metahuman gang in another city but is called off once the war leaves the rich part of town and goes back to the slums.

biracial bear for uncut posted:Wait, there is new Sandman stuff? DC has a new initiative called "Sandman Universe" which was spearheaded by Gaiman (he came up with the concepts but isn't writing any of the ongoing series) and is spinning off into 4 comics. House of Whispers Writer: Nalo Hopkinson Illustrator: Dominike Stanton The Houses of Mystery and Secrets are joined by the House of Whispers, after a woman named Latoya's girlfriend and sisters accidentally conjure the voodoo deity Erzulie, steal its essence, and cause their home to crash into the Dreaming. The Books of Magic Writer: Kat Howard Illustrator: Tom Fowler The Books of Magic is a sequel to the 1990 limited series. Timothy Hunter is torn between using his magic skills for good or evil. Magic gets in his way at school, but a substitute teacher offers to teach Tim how to master his powers. The Dreaming Writer: Si Spurrier Illustrator: Bilquis Evely The Dreaming focuses on supporting characters from The Sandman, such as Lucien the librarian, Matthew the Raven, and Nuala of Faerie. In the series, these characters try to search for Dream as his kingdom falls into darkness. Lucifer Writer: Dan Watters Illustrators: Max Fiumara and Sebastian Fiumara Lucifer Morningstar—blind, suffering from amnesia, stuck inside the body of an old man, and living in poverty—is trapped in a town where no one can leave. However, a policeman suffering from brain cancer in Los Angeles has made it his top priority to find Lucifer and kill him.

Spoilering since it just came out yesterday but these are the final two pages of "Finding Batman" a story written by Kevin Conroy about his life and career up until he got cast in Batman: The Animated Series. He talks about how difficult it was being gay and in the closet during the 70s and especially the 80s when AIDS started tearing through the NYC acting scene. I definitely recommend reading the entire thing in this year's DC Pride collection but still wanted to post these.  (Chris, who he mentions on the last page, is his brother who suffers from severe schizophrenia)
